4/5/26 - Dragonfly Challenge April 2026 (CAS) - Friendly Foliage I am here for you

Happy Sunday and welcome back to Dragonfly Challenge and this month we are making CAS - Clean and Simple card. My take on my CAS are lots of white space and one big, cluster focal point. I stamped the image and die cut out the negatives and layer it on top of a card base. If you look closely, I also embossed the white cardstock for a little texture. Then the two die cut leaves are inked with ink pads. To finish, I added a sentiment and twines. I really like how this turned out and I hope you do too and please join us at the challenge,
